Smile Magazine Name

OK I know Mike W is the king of weird questions, fly’s and rubber bands while sitting in “WHAT” chair.

Not to be out done by Mike (wanting to be like Mike) there was/is an automotive magazine that had a name like Cirto Ergo Zoom…….or Ergo Certo Zoom or sort of like that…….and I believe it is French and means "I think therefore I am fast"…….or something like that.

Therefore, question is:
Proper name and spelling of magazine and what is the meaning of the name.

You know I am teasing you Mike W

LOL Tim, I wouldn't ever admit to reading a French car magazine. There may be other ones with pictures that may be ok.

Never heard of it but it sounds like it would be a play on the Latin phrase "Cogito Ergo Sum" which translates as "I think, therefore I am". It is probably Cogito Ergo Zoom, I think therefore I go fast

A Google search didn't hit any magazines with that name but it did find a lot of articles in car magazines with the name.

Not everything that isn't English language is the French Language Tim.

The Italian's & Spanish are far more Prevalent.
